Investigating the Efficiency of Photothrombosis-associated Focal Cerebral Ischemia by Monitoring Histopathological Changes and Neurobehavioral Performance in a Model of Mouse
Abstract:Background Photothrombotic (PT) stroke model is a novel method to induce ischemic stroke in the target site using excitation of a photosensitive agent such as Rose Bengal dye after light illumination. Here, we performed a photothrombotic-induced brain ischemic model using green laser and photosensitive agent Rose Bengal (RB) and its efficiency evaluated through cellular, histological, and neurobehavioral approaches.Methods Mice were randomly allocated into RB; Laser irradiation; and RB + Laser irradiatio… Show more
